  • The Open Scripting Architecture: Automating, Integrating, and Customizing Applications
    The Open Scripting Architecture: Automating, Integrating, and Customizing Applications Unpublished manuscript, 1993 William R. Cook Warren H. Harris Apple Computer Apple Computer Research Topic areas: Language design and implementation, tools and environments, components and frameworks, concurrent and distributed systems, databases and persistence. Abstract The Open Scripting Architecture combines aspects of object-oriented programming, distributed computation, database queries, and dynamic languages into a powerful and practical system for automation, integration, and customization of applications and system services. Applications are integrated together with distributed messaging. The messages operate upon user-level application objects, like windows and spreadsheet cells that are identified by queries over properties and document containment structure. A general-purpose scripting language automates message sending and handling, and supports persistence and mobile objects. Applications call on scripting services to customize the behavior of their objects through a generic script management API. 1 Introduction The Open Scripting Architecture (OSA) is a comprehensive infrastructure for automating complex or repetitive tasks, integrating distributed applications and system services, and customizing application behavior. These end-user benefits are supported by a synergistic combination of technologies: distributed messaging and referencing of application objects, object-oriented scripting languages, and script development and management tools. Object-oriented concepts are used throughout the architecture, in the scripting language, the system, and the applications. The OSA is unique in several respects. First, it decouples the clients of scripting services (applications) from the providers of those services (language processors like AppleScript™). This decoupling allows for uniform scriptability across all applications in the same way a graphics toolbox provides a uniform GUI.

See the end of this document for complete license and permissions information. Abstract This library reference manual documents Python’s extensions for the Macintosh. It should be used in conjunction with the Python Library Reference, which documents the standard library and built-in types. This manual assumes basic knowledge about the Python language. For an informal introduction to Python, see the Python Tutorial; the Python Reference Manual remains the highest authority on syntactic and semantic questions. Finally, the manual entitled Extending and Embedding the Python Interpreter describes how to add new extensions to Python and how to embed it in other applications.

  • FILES and NAVIGATION SERVICES Demonstration Program: Files
    18 FILES AND NAVIGATION SERVICES Demonstration Program: Files Introduction This chapter addresses: · Creating, opening, reading from, writing to, and closing files. · Navigation Services, an application programming interface that allows your application to provide a user interface for navigating, opening, and saving Mac OS file objects. Files Types of Files A file is a named, ordered sequence of bytes stored on a volume. The files associated with an application are typically: · The application file itself, which comprises the application's executable code and any application- specific resources and data. · Document files created by the user using the application, which the user can edit. · A preferences file created by the application to store user-specified preference settings for the application. The Operating System also uses files for certain purposes. For example, as stated at Chapter 9, the File Manager uses a special file called the volume's catalog file to maintain the hierarchical organisation of files and folders in a volume. Characteristics of Files File Forks Macintosh files comprise two forks, called the data fork and the resource fork. The resource fork contains a resource map and resources. Unlike the bytes stored in the resource fork, the bytes in the data fork do not have to have any particular internal structure. Your application must therefore be able to interpret the bytes in the data fork in an appropriate manner. All Macintosh files contain a data fork and a resource fork; however, one or both of these forks may, in fact, be empty. Fig 1 shows the typical contents of the data and resource forks of an application file and a document file.
